What's Cooking in April (no fooling)

Winifred — Fri, 01 Apr 2016 21:28:21 GMT

My goodness but the time surely flies. Am NOT going to cook tonight - have some frozen dinners AND a couple frozen pizzas. Works better than cooking from the get go again.

For the moment - the house is quiet - the little ones are both asleep - probably will not last but a few minutes more since I had the audacity to mention it. Will I ever learn?

Very nice today - very warm in the sun and am sure closer to nightfall it will get quite chilly again. That's OK - this is nice. Kitties out in their condo and both are probably ticked off. LOL. Conrad is outside checking out the scenery, Miss Blackie is looking out the window. Would love to go to bed and sleep until tomorrow - do not think it will happen.

Betty, glad you got to Florida

Well the house filled up for sure - Davey got home and brought with him his little sister. This is a small house and they sleep all over the floors when necessary. I woke up at 4:30 and she was sitting up watching TV. Turned the TV off and told her to get under her covers. She had a nice bed made for her. LOL. If they all stay - so last night had a total of 7 people sleeping under this roof - guess I will have to cook for tonight - these are my Golden Years????? Well I do have a roast or two in the freezer and lots of potatoes and baby carrots and cabbage - that sounds like a good start to me. Should be a nice day so will "encourage" people to go outside. The two kittles will for sure be in the condo. Have a good day everyone! Soushi - let us hear from you when you have time.

I agree @spix. @Winifred usually drops in and she's not done that. Hope all is well.

We are making breakfast burritos tonight. Had a craving for bacon and eggs.

Thanks for your concerns. The household has been more than hectic - many reasons but the bottom line is I have been just too tired to sit down and type something - much less have the time. Yesterday was another exhausting day but in many ways, a good one. Those of you who have been coming to the boards may have heard me mention - though not in the past 6 or 7 years, the three little boys who lived down the street. When they were not here driving me nuts, Tessa was at their home driving their parents nuts. LOL. they were very close for some years - then they moved away.

They showed up and my goodness, the boys have now grown up also. They were here most of the day yesterday, Tessa was not feeling well so it was good for her and they left about 9 last night for the motel up the street. There was NO ROOM at my house although I think they had hoped to stay here. They came with their Mom - they live in Idaho. They had two relatives in the hospital so came down. Exhausting day, but great seeing them. Went to the 7-11 and bought 3 pizzas - they have them for $5 each - not bad at all. Fast and easy. Picked up a 1 pack of Sprite, small bag of ice and everyone was happy. LOL. Needless to say I literally collapsed last night - after being up the night before way late with two cranky little ones. Those kids were so very close in elementary school!!!

It is about time I start fixing a regular dinner - well I need the time and a little bit of peace and quiet to get that done. We shall see.

Need to get a move on = albeit a super slow move. Have a good day one and all.

Preds, I love the way you say good morning. That is so cute.

Morning to all the ladies that visit here today. I haven't posted in a long time. The story would take to long to post.

Have a blessed day!

Had a roast with baby carrots and a big onion in the slow cooker. Sides were mashed potatoes and kernel corn with butter. Finally cooked a decent meal - and everyone had disappeared but me and Davey. Not even any hangers on. LOL. Well we have a lot of potatoes and meat mixture left over - not much corn left.

Grrr, looked out the window and one of those )((&*^% neighbors has her car parked right behind my driveway - will be touchy getting out of the yard. I cannot understand them - they have a HUGE yard with lots of parking space yet they park 3 to 4 cars out on the street in everyone's way, especially mine. I think I mentioned I hit one a few weeks back - cost me some $$. People living there on occasion have had perhaps 3 to 4 cars but NEVER has anyone parked out on the street until these jerks. And this morning is trash pickup so garbage cans are already another challenge but can live with that - the cars drive me insane. Scared I will hit one again.

HOpe all have a good day. It got up to 93 yesterday - way too warm.

Morning all,

Glad to see some new comers. Please return often.

Just trying to get things back to normal here. Have bags of clothes yet to unpack. Had trouble restarting newspapers, found water in the basement AGAIN. Thought we had the problem solved with new furnace. Guess not. Had carpet cleaners here yesterday and the furnace man to double check it.

Hard to get into routine again.

Had bee using up supplies trying to put off going to grocery store. Did make chicken noodle soup with left over roast chicken. And finally went to the grocery store last night.

Hope all is well. Please keep Nelson on your prayer list.
